How has your taste in music changed over the years?

I think it hasn't n't been my taste in music so much as my taste in instruments. I used to be very interested in drum arrangements and music and became somewhat proficient for a short time and actually playing the drums. However, my interests soon shifted to guitar and I am still very fascinated with the guitar including laugh and pedal steel instruments. I can play a six-string guitar without too much difficulty but lap steel and even more so petal steel continue to elude me with their complexity. I love the sounds of almost all guitars headache frequently. Listen to solo guitar and music. When trying to relax. I find a extremely compelling.

Very little if any. I started playing instruments at about 12 in ensembles and bands, some small, others large followed by involvement in vocal and choral music as well and so had exposure to a vast array of styles from madrigal and classical to modern forms. Some I care for less than others but there are none that I dismiss out of hand.

Kind of. I’m still listening to music according to my emotions, but it has slightly changed from the music where it was mainly about insecurity. I don’t feel that way anymore so I don’t care for those old songs I used to like.

[Simslover92]

It hasn't changed too much but the emo phase has gone out a lot for me. I still listen to music that is on the depressing side, I for the most part try to listen to more upbeat positive music more these days.

When I was a kid, I was all about Disney soundtracks and random pop on the radio 🎧.
In high school, rock, emo, and lots of Asian OSTs from k-dramas and anime took over my playlists.
Now I’m more eclectic: indie, lo-fi for painting, film scores, jazz, k-pop, and occasional techno at festivals. My taste keeps getting broader, less “genre loyal,” more mood-based 🎶✨

[Cidknee]

Not that much. I still like many genres although I've come to like and appreciate many artists that I used to not get into like Roy Orbison. He was great but I didn't know. Also I have a greater opinion of Jim Morrison and the Doors. I liked a few songs in the past but I now like many more.

There are things I listened to when I was a kid that I thought were great or good and now I think it’s terrible. Mostly pop and rock from the 80s. My dad taught me a lot about music, he was a musician. Now I like most of the music that my dad listened to when I was young, but when I was young I didn’t like some of it. Some of it I still don’t like. I’m pretty open minded when it comes to music except for some of this new crap.

[queenofcardio]

Yeah, it's changed drastically. I'm still into upbeat music, but now so many other genres and artists. I never expected to like country music, but I do like some songs

[MysticDevice]

All the music I liked I never stopped listening to, but over time I added more variety to what I'd allow in my music library.

I've also retroactively gotten into sone 2000s stuff that I never considered at the time.

[xawyx-3]

Not much, I always had preferences for electronic, and classical music, as well as 80s synth/new-wave music.

[AngryCarl3]

I don't know but the availability of the kind of music I like definitely has. Before the internet you were limited to records and what they played on the radio. Dark times indeed!

[exitseven]

It hasn't changed much. I still like rock and roll, 70's folk music, Surfing music and British invasion.

[sage2021]

It hasn't changed. 70's music 🎶 is still my favorite.

[Nikki1989]

It has become far more varied and eclectic.

[DryGermanGuy]

Changed, no. Expanded a bit in all directions, yes.

[AgentG111]

Definitely appreciate oldies and can't stand the new stuff

[Paige2006]

Yes it has. I love jazz now

[Cidknee]

Jazz is a tough one.

[Crazy_Turk]

Mine didn’t change it stayed the same

[Nik1hil]

Very Little

[Pterodon]

No not really

[In_Trance]

Yes it has
